Great time to remember the deeds of Pearl Kelly

The Pearl Kelly Award has evolved into the most prestigious award for female participants in Victorian harness racing.
The Pearl Kelly Award recognises the outstanding contribution to, or achievement within, the sport by a woman.
It was struck in acknowledgement of the woman who was Australia’s first licensed reinswoman in 1916 and once finished third on the Melbourne drivers’ premiership.
